Had a great day off touring around old Quebec City. Ā  Definitely ate too much.Ā  By the time I got back to the campsite the rain started.Ā  Checked the forecast and sure enough it was not looking good.Ā  Broke out the tarp and set myself up for a night in the tent.


By morning the rain had stopped but the sky was certainly not telling me I was out of the woods.Ā  I broke camp quickly and headed out.Ā  I knew there was a breakfast stop about 3.5 k ahead so decided to have my coffee there.Ā  Great spot.Ā  While having breakfast I checked the weather and my route.Ā  Not looking too good.Ā  No campsites for 75k and no hotels anywhere along my route.Ā  Add to that 90% chances of rain for the whole day.Ā  What to do?Ā  Luckily the gods gave me the answer.


As I was leaving the restaurant the rain began. Ā  Off to the McCafe next door.Ā  They have good internet.Ā  While sipping my second cup a plan presented itself.Ā  A backpackers 1k down the road.Ā  Decision made.Ā  For less than my campsite I got to spend the day in this lovely dry house.Ā  Bike in the basement drying, nice bed, nice common area and great kitchen. Plus, they have breakfast.Ā  So after a massive day 4.5k I called it.Ā  Good decision I must say.
